" Reticle obviously needs to be focused again" Move it and it changes ranging calibration.

As an experienced FT competitior I think a Daystate Huntsman regulated or nice AA, both in the $1500 range, are a great vlaue and place to start. Both guns are capable of winning at the national level in the right hands. True most of the top shooters are using pricey equipment, but many...

Thank you Mike for the announcement. I am currently building some Thomas FT guns and can do HV and LV BR too. The good news is I will be competing in FT with a Thomas now too! The consistency across a wide temperature range is outstandng. I am excited to eliminate the temperature shift variable...

I got a lot of chuckles from this thread. I'll stir the pot. If power were limited in all classes to 12 fpe the slug discussion would go away LOL. Seriously though, with decent pellets available most of the time to the public at large, IMO more time practicing would payoff better than the effort...

At a THAGC club match the most entertaining tie breaker was one of those miniature coke cans hung on a stick at 20 yds. Shooters had to shoot off hand with a Daisy Red Ryder that had the sights removed (bare barrel).

I pushed them at 1050 fps with good accuracy in an Evanix Rainstorm that had a 1:16 no choke Crosman barrel. It was my squirrel gun for a while.

Very nice report David. Thanks. Hate I had to miss this one. Will

Joe, The previous commitment I had is regretfully going to keep me from attending. Will and Ginger

I have tried a number of brands and settled on a MAC1 that I make my own palmrest for and "tune" the adjustments. I can make elevation adjustments for fine tuning NPA using cheek pressure without hands or breaking position. Try that with the one most liked above. I have several of the MAC1s all...

A note on the failure of a target to fall on the first hit with a strike in the middle of the paddle. Often the paint is thick from multiple layers of paint and a split pellet ricochet will cut the paint at an angle that points to the faint nick from the split on the edge of the KZ. And yes...

I exited USA Hunter Class because I got tired of spending time and money buying and customizing equipment only to have rule changes render my work invalid and my equipment obsolete and permanently disfigured. The contentious drama created was also bad for the sport of FT. Since then I have shot...

I have used F&F many times in both directions and I am not a scammer. Buyer pays via PP and claims item was defective or not delivered, PP takes back the payment and refunds to the buyer. Seller is out the gun! Seller asks for F&F and the buyer pays with no "protection", then buyer has no way...

I put one down with a headshot at 30 yds with a 10.3 gr .177 at 19 fpe. Complete pass through.

Good advice above. Leave your ego at home and just go shoot "what you brung" and enjoy the experience. Nobody feels threatened and are not judgmental. Your learning curve and money savings will be exponential. I repeat.... Your learning curve and money savings will be exponential. Second...

Sightron does not replace the ring according to their representative. . They set the gun to 16X in a machine that determines true magnification and etch 16 on the power ring. I have had two 1050's upgraded this way. IIRC it cost $75. You can have it custom parallaxed also if it will not focus to...
